A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 731

The next morning, Veronica woke up. She looked around at the dark room and the familiar furnishings. She immediately got up. Without wearing shoes, she ran to the window and pulled open the heavy curtains. The dazzling sunlight shone in from outside.

According to the brightness of the sun, it was at least nine o'clock in the morning.

She stroked down her hair and turned to run to the door.

However, she had just reached the door when a person suddenly appeared and blocked her way.

Veronica had to stand in the doorway and look up. It was a familiar and handsome face. The person looked down at her with a hint of displeasure.

Raymond looked down. Veronica was standing on the carpet without slippers, barefoot.

"Mr. Cordova!" Veronica was startled and hurriedly retreated two steps.

Seeing Raymond's face, Veronica felt her heart beating faster. This feeling was strange and made her feel scared.

"Are you so scared of me?" Raymond lowered his voice and took a step forward.

His legs were much longer than hers. He took only one step and was already close to her, so she had to continue taking two steps back.

"Mr. Cordova, it's Monday today. Shouldn't you be having a meeting at the company?" Raymond was usually very busy. Moreover, it was Monday today. As far as she knew, all the higher-ups would have a meeting on Monday morning. He should be at the company right now.

Raymond raised his eyebrows. "Why are you so aware of my arrangement?"

So what?

He was now at home in a silk pajama set and didn't look like he was going out.

His implication seemed to be that she had inquired about him before.

She hurried to explain, "No, please don't misunderstand. Mr. Wager said you had a meeting every morning. I did not inquire about it."

She just heard it by ear.

Raymond smiled. His lips were sexy.

Raymond was always expressionless. He rarely smiled, unless he had a real challenge.

Seeing Raymond remain silent, Veronica felt as if there were ten thousand ants crawling on her back. She rubbed her arms and touched her goosebumps.

"Well, it's getting late. I have to go to class." Veronica glanced at Raymond's side. She laughed awkwardly and quietly moved two steps to the side, planning to walk out through the gap beside him.

Just as she had this thought, an arm suddenly blocked the door frame, blocking her way.

"You don't have to. I've already asked Marie to apply for leave for you."

"What?" Veronica's eyes widened. "No, no, no. I don't need to ask for leave. I'll go back now."

How could she casually ask for a leave? And, it was almost exam time. The teacher would evaluate her grades during this time. Skipping class would affect her grades.

"No!" Raymond firmly refused. "That kind of thing happened to you yesterday. You should rest well at home today."

Veronica lowered her head in frustration and scratched her hair.

She suddenly realized that she was wearing a set of pajamas that she had never worn before. It didn't seem to be hers.

She tugged at the pajamas she was wearing, and her smart brain started to work quickly.

Last night, she was saved by Raymond. Later on, she fell asleep in Raymond's arms. The memories from last night flooded her like a tide. She remembered last night when she was in the car, and she was holding Raymond tightly.

Crap...

What did she do?
